Have a decision to make at Flex for Week 1

Starters:

WR are Baldwin and Jones JR

Corey DAvis at Miami (24th PA)
Isaiah Crowell vs Det (2nd PA)
Randall Cobb vs CHI (17th PA)

Leaning Crowell over Davis
That’s rough. I probably go Crowell since he has the higher floor. But I think Davis has the higher ceiling.

I probably wouldn’t start Cobb until I see a game or two of usage.

I'm leaning Conner atm but it feels really close.
I think I go Conner, but it’s definitely really close. Thursday night players usually drive me crazy, but since tonight’s the first game of the season, Ajayi should be fresh.

I'm very much torn between the latter two.

Same scoring, different league:

Leonard Fournette @ NYG
Kareem Hunt @ LAC

I lean Fournette for the matchup but just wanted to check.

Same scoring, need to bench one WR:

Larry Fitzgerald v WAS
Doug Baldwin @ DEN
Allen Robinson @ GB

My real tough call is Baldwin vs. Robinson-- they come with different risks-- but I'm open to anyone who thinks Fitz should sit over them if they can justify it.
Larry Fitzgerald
I’d sit Henry. As another poster about said, the Pats will probably get out ahead and Lewis will be used more.

What are you other options where you’re in a position of deciding whether to sit Fournette or Hunt? But I go Fournette over Hunt if you have to.

I’m probably sitting Fitz. Age plus new QB has me worried. But a healthy Bradford over a healthy Trubisky is probably a more sure bet.

I’d definitely play Baldwin.

Probably sitting Fitz over Robinson, but it’s close. I think robinson may have the higher ceiling with Fitz having the higher floor.

Week one sucks lol.

I misread the matchups lol. But I’d still sit Henry and keep Lamar.

Fournette based on matchup I guess

If Baldwin is healthy, seems like sitting Robinson is the safe wait and see play
Pats are playing Texans, Titans are playing Dolphins

"If Baldwin is healthy" is kind of the key question here; I'm not sure he's going to be healthy (maybe at all this year) and if Chris Harris is on him that's a difficult matchup

Would've been better if I hadn't traded Kamara midseason last year.

I’d say so.

I might try to move Hunt.

Is this weather bad enough to bench Agholor?

My best alternatives are Engram v JAX, Godwin @ NO, or Lockett @ DEN.

Tough call. Not much help but Williams is a bench for sure I think.

PPR I mean towards the receiver and flip a coin on the other 2.

Trade Collins for Bell if he has a decent game?

Collins and Conner. Debated sanders over Conner but kind of want to see what Denver offense looks like before picking sanders in what feels like a coin flip

Still pondering this one:

Flex, pick 1. 1.25 PPR

Marshawn vs LAR (MNF, Lynch maybe hurt??)
Duke Johnson vs PIT ( 5 inches of rain and 80 mph winds)
Golladay vs NYJ (also MNF, probably very TD dependent)

I think if Marshawn wasn't questionable I would roll with him, but I can't risk being shut out of this spot. I like Duke, but not sure about playing in a typhoon....

12 team PPR - QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/WR/TE/FLEX/DST

QB
Jared Goff @ Raiders
Patrick Mahomes @ Chargers

WR/FLEX
I already started Sanu in WR as I wanted to have someone to watch in the kick off game, which I now regret So I have Tate @ NYJ who is locked in at starting for me, so there is a WR spot and a Flex position to fill with any of the below....

Devin Funchess v Cowboys
Jordy Nelson v Rams
Marquise Goodwin @ Vikings
Dede Westbrook @ Giants
DJ Moore v Cowboys
Alfred Morris @ Vikings

At the moment I'm leaning towards Goff, Funchess and Nelson, but not really sure on who to pick as my Sanu pick has left me a bit behind after only getting 5.8.

My opponent has Elliott, Conner, Hogan, Hilton, Thielen, Olsen, so a few players who could get big scores which makes me think I should go for players with a higher ceiling?

Do you start any on the bench above the 5 I have in?

Nelson, Stills, Golladay
Hyde, Thompson, Crowell, Michel

Obviously, DJ, ODB and Hill are locked in. Really just trying to decide on Ajayi and Baldwin.
was going to suggest Hyde over Baldwin, but with the weather in CLE I'd stick with Baldwin while he's as healthy as he's gonna be

DJ, Mixon
Allen, Adams, Diggs

Lewis, Freeman, Conner
Sanders, Goodwin

Really just trying to decide on Mixon and McCoy.
I feel like they're gonna get Conner all the touches and TDs, but with the weather I guess stick with Mixon

definitely Sanders...

love Collins this year but see above re Conner... when I'm flipping I usually go with the guy at home (who can be audibled to more easily)
